build from sources - latest snapshot - dists or distLibs ?

[Tomek Kaczanowski-3]

hi all,

I pulled the latest gradle src from git (and then downloaded latest
src from TeamCity to check it once again, and then from
http://snapshots.dist.codehaus.org/gradle/ to make sure I'm not
dreaming ;). I followed the http://gradle.org/build.html and run

./gradlew clean dists

but failed each time with:
FAILURE: Could not determine which tasks to execute.

* What went wrong:
Task 'dists' not found in root project 'gradle'.

* Try:
Run with -t to get a list of available tasks.

BUILD FAILED

./gradlew -t gives me plenty of tasks, but not "dists"

distLibs seems like a proper one to me. But I'm confused - build.gradle says:
 defaultTasks "clean", "dists"

?

I think 'dists' was renamed to 'archives'.  Maybe the defaultTasks was just overlooked?  I've been distracted lately and not been keeping up with changes, so I might be wrong.  :)

Some tasks you could use, depending on what you want to do: 'assemble',
'binZip' or 'install'

John, Adam - thanks.

but my point is that:
http://gradle.org/build.html is telling lies
and
build.gradle has default tasks that are no longer valid.

both things are misleading and do not help to start contributing to gradle.

I miss my explodedDist :(
I think someone should be able to build a working install without having to set
any extra properties.  Does anyone mind if I make the change to provide a
default value for gradle_installPath of 'build/install'.

For me, at least, 'clean, install' seem to be good default tasks.

I agree that not having explodedDist is a pain.  Bring back explodedDist
-- though perhaps a term other than exploded would be good so as to
avoid the gaze of the anti-terrorist units ;-)

I am not convinced by having a default location.  Having to set
gradle_installPath in ~/.gradle/gradle.properties strikes me as being
right.

I still think there should be a gradle-docs:install target so as to
install the built docs into gradle_installPath along with the executable
gradle.

Perhaps I should just create these and commit them?

I think it should be assemble, as dists changed to assemble with gradle
0.7 => 0.8.

I posted a patch for this on the mailing lists on the 30.9.2009, seems
it never made it to the repo.

So let us make it more "official" :)
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRADLE-717

please comment on this JIRA issue if you know how it should be done properly
